Toshi, a nineteen-year-old, from Nagasaki, in Japan, wants to become a sumo wrestler. Toshi. who weighs over 175 kilos, and is 1 metre 95 tall, lives in a special training camp, called a Heya, with thirty other sumo wrestlers. Their training is very hard. Even before breakfast, they normally practise for four and a half hours! It is important that Toshi doesn't lose weight, so he always has a large lunch of rice, meat, fish and vegetables with lots of beer, and sometimes he eats extra pizzas and burgers. After lunch he goes to sleep for a few hours. One day, Toshi hopes to be famous - and rich - but at the moment he doesn't earn much money, so each month his parents send him money to help him.

Ania, who comes from Lublin in Poland, is a champion gymnast. She's seventeen years old and lives in a small apartment with her mother. She trains very hard - usually about eight hours every day, except Sunday, when she rests. She normally gets up at about seven in the morning and practises for three or four hours. Then she rests in the afternoon, before practising for another four hours in the early-evening. Like most gymnasts Ania is very small - only about 1 metre 50, and she weighs very little too - around 40 kilos. This is very important for a gymnast, so she doesn't eat very much -although her mother makes sure she has a healthy diet! Ania doesn't earn very much money, but she enjoys her lifestyle very much.

Dan, from Bucharest in Romania, is a professional footballer with a big Italian football club. He lives with his Italian girlfriend in a large villa in the mountains near Milan. Although he's only twenty-three years old, he earns around $50,000 a week. He spends his money on fast cars, Italian designer clothes and goes to all the best restaurants and clubs in Milan. But Dan has to live a healthy life - he never smokes and only occasionally drinks alcohol… .
